Am just about all set for tomorrow’s marathon trip – weather forecast is good (if a little blowy in the afternoon), kit’s all sorted, radio and mobiles are charged, maps marked with hazards and stops. I head down to Milford tonight and plan to set off for the solo trip early tomorrow at dawn from Milford On Sea. The plan is: breakfast on the beach after 18 km, lunch after 31 km and 32 km to the tea stop before the last 20 km slog against the wind back to Milford – well that’s the plan anyway!

Most take 2-3 days to do this trip and a few nutters do it in 9-17 hours, I plan to complete it in 13hrs, not looking to break records just make it home in one piece! To help encourage me on this marathon of a trip please visit my JustGiving page and donate what you can.
